Lime Rock M2 individual color

Some of guy are aware of Michael Fux's individual Austin Yellow F87 M2 and cost him well over 100k because the manufacturing plant cannot support orders for individual colors.
I saw this Fire Orange M2 edition on my IG feed and it appears to be at BMW performance center west at Thermal.

Does anyone know the story behind this individual color? I guess BMW PFC West can order what ever they want

Mike paid to have the car moved to a plant that could paint his car.

Not happening otherwise!

An expansion of the manufacturing plant starts next year and will be completed in 2020. Perhaps then the updated paint area will be able to add more colors to the M2 palette and also allow Individual options.

Pretty ridiculous...is that an OEM carbon roof? Why not when you've already bought a GT4-priced M2

Considering it has a black roof, it's a wrap.

This car was shipped to another facility for the paint and assembled at the regular plant. All the facts and speculation are here: http://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...stin+Yellow+M2.

I just don't know why someone would pay that much to have an M2 the color of Donald Trump's hair.

The Austin Yellow M2 that went to another plant for paint is Michael Fux -

The car in question is ORANGE in the first post. It's a wrap. It's not the Austin Yellow M2...

I've driven that orange M2 at Thermal. It's a wrap, including the roof.

Sorry for the old thread bump, stumbled upon this thread google searching M2C's Lime Rock lap times.
